Beat
the Odds. Avoid Chronic Illnesses and Prescribed Medications.
The Holistic Health Show teaches you how using Mind, Body,
Spirit, Relationship, Environment, and Political Interventions.
This show could save your life by providing you with comprehensive
holistic interventions for staying well and overcoming
illnesses. Staying healthy and overcoming illnesses involve
a combination of body-mind-spirit-environment-relationship-political
interventions. I believe these should be the most effective
ones available and also the least caustic and invasive.
The host uses and recommends a combination of holistic
interventions for maximum effectiveness in maintaining
health but many guests will present an in depth discussion
on one aspect of the whole. Interventions in the six areas
identified above should be used together, however, for
maximum effectiveness.
The host was diagnosed with lung cancer and given 6 months
to live by his primary care physician and specialist 32
years ago. Refusing chemotherapy and surgery he elected
instead to use a holistic alternative approach. He has
continued this approach and now at age 76 he has no chronic
illnesses and no prescribed medications. To put this in
context research shows that 89% of all people over age
65 have chronic illnesses and prescribed medications and
the average for those at age 75 is 3 chronic illnesses
and 5 prescribed medications. The goal of the host is
to assist others to achieve similar results in their lives
so they can enjoy their elder years free of chronic illnesses
and the accompanying pain, expenses, and inconveniences
experienced.
